What it does when it runs

A template skill. Replace it with a task you repeat. Trigger only when the user explicitly asks to run the example skill.

Automated analysis of the skill and the 0 files bundled beside it. A skill’s own description is written to be selected by an agent, so it describes the job and not the dependencies.

Keys and connectors you must supply
None found.
Hosts it reaches
No third-party host appears in the skill or its bundled files.
Tool permissions it declares
No allowed-tools in the frontmatter. It only issues instructions, so there is nothing to bound.
Actions present in the files
None. Instructions only.

Picked up without a restart. A project skill of the same name is shadowed by your personal one. For one repository only, swap ~/.claude/skills for .claude/skills. Claude Code docs ↗

The folder is the same in every client that implements the format — 46 of them — so if yours is not above, only the destination changes.

Example Skill (template)

A skill is a reusable unit of work Claude runs when your request matches its description. The description is the trigger — keep it specific, or it fires at the wrong time (or never).

This one does nothing on purpose. Swap it for your own. A good skill:

  • does one job well,
  • reads from ops/ (or demo/) instead of asking for context it could find,
  • ends by writing its result somewhere durable — a file, a log.

See .claude/skills/status-update/ and .claude/skills/triage/ for two worked examples.

This page tells you what example-skill does and what it needs. Cheetah builds the agent setup it runs inside: data, CRM, sequencing and the guardrails.
